Overwatch’s latest anniversary mode brings back pre-Overwatch 2 6v6 and I have to admit, I missed it

Role queueing as a tank in 5v5 Overwatch requires mental resilience, strategic insight, and commitment to the team. The transition to a 5v5 format has made the tank's role more crucial, with increased responsibilities such as creating space, maintaining the front line, and protecting support players. Players can still engage in a 6v6 mode, which is balanced for 5v5 but lacks a role queue. This week, a special pre-Overwatch 2 6v6 format is available to celebrate the game's 10-year anniversary. The author enjoys this nostalgic format, particularly as an off-tank, as it allows for more dynamic gameplay without the pressure of protecting the backline. The 6v6 mode will soon end, but there are hints of more free content coming later this year.
